CultureRe: Osu Caste System! Such A Terrible Practice!! by talktrue1(m): 7:40am On Feb 11, 2015
bigfrancis21:
This whole Osu thing is exaggerated out of proportion. I was born and spent all my life in the east until 2013 and I have never seen nor encountered an Osu before. I don't even know any Osu personally. I've read of it only in books. There is no open discrimination in Igboland as to Osu vs Nwadiana. Hausas and non-Igbos alike living in the east will readily attest to this. Osuship only becomes an issue when it comes to marriage or kingship issues in a village. And it is practiced only in certain areas of Igboland especially in Owerri and within a 100-mile radius axis, parts of Abia state and virtually missing in Delta Igbo (Anioma), Anambra, Rivers, Ebonyi and Enugu states. I am yet to encounter an 'osu' in person.
There is no mark or practice to distinguish one but you will only know of it when you want to marry and they will go for iju ese. that iju ese is to find out the status of his descendants. lucky for you if you are of the same status then you will not know. it is the girls that suffers the most
CultureRe: Osu Caste System! Such A Terrible Practice!! by talktrue1(m):
The ohu system is being practiced in Amechi Awkunanaw in Enugu state. the home town of sen ken nnamani and gov jim nwobodo. you cannot know them physically but when its time for marriage, they will go for iju ese and once one of you is of ohu descendant they will thwart the marriage. over there, ohu marry ohu, and amadi marry amadi. as an ohu you cannot partake in some leadership role in the village

PoliticsRe: A Tale Of Two Bad Options - APC/PDP GMB/GEJ by talktrue1(m): 2:58pm On Dec 18, 2014
I feel the same way too.
GEJ is the main reason why corruption is on high level today, and on the other side, GMB is old and have also been chosen by corrupt officers like Tinubu. He cannot do anything to offend them when he enters power.

This is between the devil and the red sea
But we must make a wise choice

PoliticsFive Presidents In Nigeria By Obasanjo by talktrue1(op): 10:42am On Dec 09, 2014
Former president of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has insinuated that Patience Jonathan, wife of the president, Deziani Alison-Madueke, Petroleum Minister, Stella Oduah, former Aviation Minister and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Finance Minister are all ‘Presidents’ of Nigeria, noting that Goodluck Jonathan comes behind the quartet and is the weakest of them all.

Extracts from the three-volume autobiography of Obasanjo, titled, “My Watch” revealed how critical he is of Jonathan’s administration. “Five presidents in Nigeria, these were his wife, Deziani, Oduah, Ngozi, Goodluck Jonathan and that he was the weakest of the five,” Obasanjo said in ‘My Watch’

...
Cavanagh told The State newspaper, "There was a dog that was killed, but he was killed doing his job and that was protecting these officers that night."
Judge Robert Hood sentenced McCreary to 35 years in prison which includes the five-year maximum sentence for killing a police dog. That sentence is to be served after the other 30 years

1. So what will happen when the exchange rate becomes low? will they bring down the price
2. They forgot that there will be a drop in electricity generation because of this, and we will continue to pay more for tariff and service charge
3. They are not the only company using this gas, so why the increment on their side

God help us in this country
